Kirlian photography

Process by which colour photographs can be taken of the electric field radiating from living things. A photographic plate is placed between the object to be photographed and a high-frequency electrical field. The resulting pictures show brightly coloured patterns studded with streaks and dots. The brilliancy of the colours and the patterns change according to the mood and health of the subject.

The technique was discovered 1939 by the Soviet electrician Semyon Kirlian.

An experiment conducted in Moscow appears to have shown that for a short while after a piece has been taken from a fresh leaf, the image of the piece persists in a photograph, where the bright outline of the whole leaf is seen.
